Chamomile trials.

Life for this poor chamomile plant has been rough. 

A winter in a 6 inch deep planter box. 

Outgrowing it by nearly 3 feet.
Transplanting.

Let's pray my compost mixed soil will be nutrient dense enough to sustain it!

Ahhh, Chamomile. Just saying it's name brings relaxation to mind.

While it's medicinally known to aid sleep and relax tense muscles in tea. It offers boundless other uses.

- In poultice form it will add comfort to a bath or aching neck.

- It can be mixed with other herbs to aid in digestion

But here's one that you may NOT already know... my mother in law found out she had kidney stones the size of regular m&m's. She seeked her regular herbalist Joshuah whom had immediately perscibed her MASS quans of bulk chamomile to ingest in aid of dissolving her stones... And it worked!

Brilliant, am I right!?

My vacations end..

I must be from the early 1900's..
I sit on my back porch and drink green tea, water my flourishing garden... I even bake my own bread (which saves SO much money)!

I guess the only thing that's missing is my wrap around porch, farm, and bearded man :)

Ughhhh

Life is nothing but sickness, money, bills, and stress sandwiched between 10-12 hours of work. Or at least it seems this way this week. 10+ hours per day for the next two weeks? Fuuuuuuuh.

Checking my last few bits of work email and knocking the frack out!
